Support for Alfonso

Donation protected
This GoFundMe campaign is dedicated to supporting a courageous former volunteer firefighter, Alfonso, who has bravely battled cancer and is currently undergoing chemotherapy. The outlook is hopeful, but he is facing critical challenges ahead, including necessary bone marrow transplants.

Throughout his treatment, Alfonso has been fortunate to have the unwavering support of his firefighting family and friends within the community. However, financial burdens are mounting as he approaches a concerning situation. While the residential care facility for his bone marrow transplant does not charge for its services, patients are required to pay for 24-hour care, amounting to a staggering $17,000 per month. Alfonso anticipates a stay of up to 3 weeks in the facility, followed by an additional month at home to recover and regain his strength before returning to work.

As a single father to two young girls, Alfonso is their primary source of support, and their well-being depends on him. Moreover, he also cares for his elderly parents, who have their own medical needs and are no longer able to provide for themselves. Until his cancer diagnosis, Alfonso dedicated himself as the sole provider for his family.

Your support at this critical time can make an enormous difference in their lives. Every contribution, no matter the amount, will be deeply appreciated and will help alleviate the financial strain they are currently experiencing. Thank you for considering helping Alfonso and his family during this challenging journey.
